One of the most horrible rail.
road accidents on record took place
on Saturday last at White river
in the town of Hartford, Vermont.
The bridge was seventy feet high
and two sleepers and two passen-
ger cars together with the bridge
all went down together. The hour
was half past two in the morning.
About eighty passengers were on
board the train, and over seven
ty persons are supposed to
have been killed. The wreck as
usual took fire, and cars, bridge
and passengers were burned.

NEW ORLEANS MERCHANTS.

In discussing the future of New
Orleans, correspondent of one of
the New Orleans papers, recently
wrote from an inland town in Mis-
sissippi that he met drummers
from all parts of the country ex-
cept New Orleans, and he urged
upon New Orleans the necessity
and urgency of drumming
the country tributary. to it, thor
oughly, or all the advantages it
possessed would be overcome by
more pushing and vigorous cities.
New Orleans certainly does lack
push, except when it comes to
pushing planter to the wall, and
then you can get all the push
you want in New Orleans. The
merchants in that city are altogeth-
er too magnificent in their ideas.
They are too much above small
things. Unless plantation is plain
ly in sight at the settling up of the
account, they don't take much in
terest in the matter. Small, cash
customers are thought little of,
rather despised. A plantation bus
mess is rich plum that is eagerly
picked. A business of that kind
is fat, commissions dangle all along
the line of the account, commits
sions for buying, commissions for
selling, commissions for money to
buy goods, commissions for selling
goods, per centages, all go to make
up an account that rejoices the soul
of the New Orleans merchant, and
the small cash customer without
any trimmings in his, is passed by.
This is one of the many causes Of
Madison times. (Tallulah, Madison Parish, La.) 1884-1???, 1887-02-12
